Re: Request a ColdFusion Tutorial

I could really use a quick tutorial on binding flash form items in CF. Ben Forta's WACK briefly touches on it, but I haven't had time to learn flash or actionscripting yet. Anyway, basically, what I need is to have some syntax explained so I see the "why" behind what is being written, otherwise I'm not able to be creative with the code, ya know?

Or, if you know of a good book that would explain that, I could save you the time and just go buy it.

Thanks for the help!

After posting this I started thinking it might belong in the Flash forum, if so, Sorry...

I would really like a tutorial on how to write an "I'm online" button that will show when one of my clients is online so his or her (my client's) customer doesn't unknowingly buy a service when my client isn't online to service his or her customer.

Hello, I'm new to forums in general. Normally I work it out using tuts or books. I hope you can help me ([i]I'm kinda at the end of my tether)

I am stuck on how I can display on my index.cfm page, that when a button is clicked it will display the appropriate page in an area on the index page. I have inserted a <div id="content"></div> and have linked the buttons to the appropriate pages but alas have had no luck.

Re: Request a ColdFusion Tutorial

First of all, this doesn't seem like the right place to post this question... nonetheless I'll point you in the direction of what I was able to use to solve a similar problem.

Create a javascript function that uses DOM to insert the contents you want (if you are unfamiliar with DOM, it's amazingly easy for how powerful it is for dynamic page manipulation- visit http://www.w3schools...dom/default.asp for a tutorial/reference).

Then just make button/link point to that javascript function.

I know I didn't just fix the problem for you, but I guarantee this method can be used to do it.
